My career path
I began my iOS career while pursuing a degree in Mechanical Engineering in 2016, joining a college startup to build an iOS app. After graduation, I worked at Samsung in the Semiconductor industry, enrolled at Udacity to deepen my iOS expertise, and continued consulting for the startup. Over the following years, I worked as an iOS engineer at Citibank, two software agencies, and three startups in the healthcare industry. As my career progressed, I expanded beyond mobile, evolving into a full-stack engineer with strong backend and DevOps skills. Today, I specialize in architecting scalable cloud infrastructure using AWS, building APIs with FastAPI, and managing CI/CD pipelines—while still maintaining deep expertise across the entire iOS development lifecycle.
• Built iPad app that serves as a remote controller for a medical
device that takes pictures of the eye and uses AI to detect medical
conditions.
• Designed software architecture including navigation routers, user
interfaces, services, and networking layers distributed in modules
through Swift packages. It also leverages the latest async Apple's
APIs, such as actors.
• Continuously write and maintain robust Unit and UI tests to ensure
medical-level code quality as required by the FDA (Food and Drug
Administration).
• Lead junior developers, providing guidance and mentorship in the
code base while teaching them iOS architecture, Swift syntax, and
Apple's frameworks knowledge.

Senior iOS Engineer | Sep 2021 - Aug 2022
Continuously develop and deliver new features to the app using 100% SwiftUI and Combine.
Wrote and maintained unit tests using the XCTest framework.
Led the integration of push notifications in the app using Braze and helped SDM to build an internal service to handle notifications via APN directly.
Worked closely with product manager and data engineers to set data analytics goals and expectations. This entailed integrating Heap SDK into the app, collecting events in the app, and navigating through Heap’s dashboard.
Worked closely with SDM to set up a CI/CD pipeline using Github Actions that served for delivering builds to QA testers and for uploading production builds to Testflight in a very efficient release process.
Continuously develop and deliver new features to the app within a fast-paced scrum team.
Led a project to integrate wearable device technology into the application via bluetooth pairing. This also entailed using HealthKit to store and record health metrics with the goal of better helping patients.
Individually set up a CI/CD pipeline using Gitlab, Fastlane, and Bitrise to automate the app distribution process for QA testers and speed up the delivery workflow.
Coordinated the integration of cross-platform automated UI testing to our QA workflow using Appium and TestProject alongside a QA engineer.
Wrote unit tests with 75% code coverage using the XCTest framework.
